Thumbs up Lufthansa orders 20 747-8i

Finally! Here we go!!! This was getting more and more likely but now it's finally official! Bye-bye airbus! (I know Airbus won't disappear, and that is good, but Boeing is just better!

Those new 74's look good. Luf's paint scheme looks nice on them too

It's great that the 747 line will continue to run into 2010

very nice look. Do the new 74s have the huge general electric engines?

The 747-800 looks better than the A380, the 380 is an ugly bus. Every other plane airbus makes, looks nice, but the 380 just doesn't look nice. The 747 is, and while continue to be the better looking aircraft, the 380 just seems retarded while the the 747 rolls out and up, with dignity and class.

If you fly boeing, you while notice you have something in between your legs.

If you fly airbus, you while notice that there is nothing in between your legs.

M point is: Boeing Rules!
